About the Game

We present to you GRIM, a spooky narrative game where the player is dead and through the possession of various objects as a ghost, players can make world-shaping decisions that decide the fate of their twin trapped inside the same house with a vicious monster! You and Jia must fight off the monsters of the night, figure out what happened to your parents, and reveal the dark passages, hidden away from innocent eyes.

Inspired by the different retellings of the original Taiwanese folklore “Aunt Tiger”, Grim provides players with a unique experience exploring an immersive 3D environment and a dynamic narrative where players will uncover different storylines based on their decisions. As a ghost, players can possess objects and toggle different physics-based movements with unique controls depending on various items.
